Jonathon M.

I'm a content strategist and producer who spent a decade in the New York City media world before crossing the pond to London in 2025. My career started in the trenches of post-production - logging footage, color-correcting, and editing until my eyes crossed. Because I spent years doing that heavy lifting, I developed a bit of an obsession with workflow efficiency. Today, I look at content through a dual lens: I pair my creative side - sharp editorial judgment, refining subtle visual details, mentoring writers and editors to do the same - with a data-driven operational mindset that loves building smooth, scalable production pipelines. I fix the clunky backend processes so our team has the time and space to create work we are genuinely proud of. Lately, my favorite playground has been the podcast and audio space. I love staying up to date on the industry and I've spent the last few years proving that audio can be a massive growth engine for a brand. Whether securing a seven-figure investment or engineering remote production workflows, I excel at taking a raw idea and building it into a successful reality. A few things I'm proud of: • Building a world-class brand's flagship podcast from the ground up that brought in 400K+ downloads and an online community of 6K+ engaged subscribers; and took home 2 Gracie Awards, including the Grand Award spanning all media. • Spending a year embedded alongside a brain cancer patient and his family to write, direct, and edit a docu-style video podcast and social mini-series that earned a Webby Honoree distinction. • On more than one occasion, taking a brand's legacy digital or YouTube archive of 1,000+ assets and completely overhauling its SEO and infrastructure to turn it into a dynamic institutional growth engine. That level of project management, organization and payoff scratches a deep itch for me. Whether I'm scripting a video series, recording a podcast, mentoring editors, managing vendors, aligning stakeholders, or getting my own hands dirty in Premiere, my goal is always to translate complex, messy ideas into genuine human stories that people actually want to watch or listen to. Now that I'm based in London, I’m looking for my next chapter with a global team.
